Haregrove Haregrove, which is Listed Grade II, is a pretty Georgian fronted Cotswold stone Farmhouse, with part dating to the 15th Century, having converted outbuildings sitting at the head of a very long drive in a peaceful rural valley in prime Gloucestershire. The house sits on one side of the valley and is approached through a stone pillar entrance down a long carriage drive with paddocks flanking on either side. On approach there is a further set of gates with a gravel parking and turning area in front of the house. The property is constructed of Cotswold stone and brick under a stone tile roof and is set beautifully within its gardens that are laid out to the south and east of the house grading down to the lake at the base of the valley. The grounds are made up of fields interspersed with mature woodland copses and the lake is stream fed. Features within the house include stone floors, stone mullion windows, wooden doors with plenty of built-in storage. The accommodation in the main house is arranged over three floors in the original farmhouse end. Of particular note is the well-proportioned drawing room with an impressive stone inglenook fireplace with large bressumer beam over, exposed timbers and a stone floor with built-in shelving and cabinets across one wall. Carvings by the fireplace were probably executed by visiting Monks, when the house was used as a retreat. The Dining room is a charming, light room being double aspect with a large ¾ height floor to ceiling sash window with beautiful views of the valley to the front of the house. There is a built-in bookshelf with storage cabinet beneath and a brick fireplace with stone surround housing a log burner. Stairs lead to the 1st and 2nd floors with 3 double Bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The kitchen/breakfast room is well equipped with a four-oven Aga and electric hob, a range of on-floor and wall-mounted kitchen cabinets with granite work surfaces and steps lead down to a snug or breakfast room and beyond this is the utility/laundry or boot room with doors to outside. A further door leads to a converted barn that is triple height into the pitch and consists of an open sitting room or playroom with a built-in log burner to one side, a bathroom on the ground floor and steps rise up to a mezzanine bedroom above. There is an opening through to a further converted barn (currently blocked off) but could easily be brought back in the main accommodation if required. The secondary barn, currently used as separate accommodation, consists of an open-plan triple- height sitting room with kitchen, bathroom and mezzanine bedroom on the first floor.

Gardens and Grounds In front of the house is a sunken entertaining terrace surrounded by a low dry-stone wall with rose and shrub beds surrounding. Adjacent to this is the remnants of an old stone milling trough with surrounding paving leading to a formal lawned garden on the east side of the house. Around this pretty, enclosed garden is a dry- stone retaining wall on two sides and flanked on the third by the house with a beautiful back drop with the valley beyond. There are specimen trees, flower and shrub beds as well as mature trees surrounding the formal gardens. The Land The land predominantly consists of fields of pasture interspersed with wooded copses and mature hedgerows. The land is registered for Basic Payment Scheme entitlements and the land has been consistently grazed by livestock with an existing grazing agreement in place. Within the grounds is a useful agricultural storage barn and running at the base of the valley is the Painswick stream feeding a pretty lake situated below the house. Footpaths There are several footpaths that cross the land. HAREGROVE Note: “This plan is based upon the Ordnance Survey map with the sanction of the control of H.M. Stationary office.
